According to this credible source (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Milo_Yiannopoulos)) he liked reading Hitler's speeches. So if you consider Hitler to be /lit/, Milo is /lit/ too.

Gayboys in the Easter Rising. If James Joyce was a homo he might have written something like this.

I'm actually about to start reading pic related, no idea how /lit/ it is.

And not fiction but I'd recommend Stephen Fry's autobiography about his boarding school days, Moab is My Washpot.

>>8965681

Most of /lit/'s favorite books are full of faggotry

>The Iliad
>The Odyssey
>In Search of Lost Time
>Moby-Dick
>The Divine Comedy (you know Dante and Virgil sucked each others cocks)

There's also shit like Brideshead Revisited and The Picture of Dorian Gray that have self-loathing gay characters.

Also, Hemingway is full of latent homosexuality.
